Now shipping perennials for fall planting:

Thank you for a great year so far. We are now shipping perennial orders for fall planting and will continue shipping into November. Lily bulbs will be updated in October as they are still very green and the bulbs need more time to develop. If they don't develop in time for fall planting we will overwinter them in our coolers for spring shipping.

Your order can be shipped almost immediately or you can specify your preferred shipping time at checkout. Please note that we are not taking spring orders yet.

The nursery is still open to the public 7 days a week from 9am to dark. All potted plants remaining in the main sales area are on clearance - check our facebook page for details. We will close October 31st so if you are in the area we would love to show you around and help you pick out some plants. We are located on the west side of US Highway 127, 15 miles south of Jackson, Michigan, and 1/2 mile north of US-12.

Feel free to email us or call us toll free at 866-568-1474 with any questions and thank you very much for your continued support!
